Keen sailors and windsurfers will notice the wide-open bay with the wind at their back. Mountain bikers will notice the trails in the hills on their way in. But everyone will remember the warm welcome and the long, sandy beach in this lovely corner of Lesvos.

Aeolian Village Beachclub is super-chilled out. You won't feel rushed into doing anything while you're here, even though there's so much on offer.

Activities

Activities on the water

The consistent offshore winds flatten the water in the bay and also provides enough power (typically force 3-5) for some seriously good windsurfing or sailing later in the day, with beginner and intermediate windsurfing tuition available.

If your focus is windsurfing, you’re confident in footstraps and harness and you fancy a new challenge, sign up for one of our wind foiling courses. Exclusive to Aeolian Village, you’ll be learning your foiling skills with a maximum of six other people. ‘First flights’ provides a basic introduction to foiling over two hours and can be pre-booked for £89 per person, once completed you can progress to 'Sustained Flights'. ‘Sustained Flights’ runs over two days for a total of 12 hours and can be pre-booked for €199 per person. Both can be booked together for £244.

Once both courses have been completed to a satisfactory standard, you may continue to use the equipment free of charge for the week you have booked the course. Any subsequent weeks will be charged at a supplement of €100 per person (subject to availability, book and pay locally).

When not being used for the courses, foiling equipment can be used by guests with previous experience on a first-come-first-served basis for a supplement (book and pay locally).

There's a water sport for everybody and you can take the pace down a notch or two and head out into the sparkling Aegean on a kayak or stand up paddle board. Explore the bay and be sure to check out the village of Skala Eressos, treat yourself to ice cream or a cooling drink from one of the quirky, bohemian cafés that rise from stilts on the beachfront.

Activities on the shore

The hills around the beachclub are full of trails for mountain bikers of all abilities. Our guided rides offer something for all levels and abilities – with just enough of a challenge if you want it. You can also take a bike out on your own with route cards, or if you want to, rent a Garmin GPS pre-loaded with some of our favourite routes.

Back at the beachclub, our three floodlit tennis courts offer inclusive tennis and coaching that's open to everyone and you can use the courts for free-play when not being used for group tuition. At the end of the week, there's usually a tournament and don't forget to come along to 'booze and balls' for some light-hearted fun and games on the courts.

There is a small gym and a range of fitness classes available every day including aqua fit, Zumba, HIIT, stretch and body conditioning. For a little extra we can also offer one-to-one swim coaching in the pool for all ages and abilities.

Equipment

If you've got cycling shoes with cleats and are planning on bringing them with you, we advise that you should also bring your own pedals. That way, they are guaranteed to fit.

Rest and relaxation

If relaxing is your thing, you'll love the feeling of space and the wellness area with three treatment rooms. There's also a Finnish style sauna, hydro bath and outdoor massage area. The facilities are free to use but are even better when you book sports or relaxation treatments (treatments are at a supplement). Pre-book the one hour spa package before you travel and you'll enjoy savings on the in resort prices.

Food and drink

Our holidays include club board – daily breakfasts, lunches and four evening meals per week. From buffets, to BBQs our chefs work tirelessly to provide a wide range of delicious food.

The beach bar has a relaxed vibe or head to the pool bar and sink into one of the comfy sofas. There's a great selection of drinks and cocktails to choose from. The pool bar also serves bar meals for your non-inclusive evenings or you could pop out to some of the local bars and tavernas in Skala Eressos.

*Due to flight times, Birmingham guests arrive at the resort late and will miss the inclusive meal on Saturday night; but will receive a free bbq on Tuesday night instead.

Rooms

Hotel rooms are close to all of the main beachclub facilities, including the pool, restaurant and beach. With twin, double and interconnecting rooms you'll find something that suits you.

Alternatively hillside room have great views across the resort to the sea beyond. They are a bit of a walk from the pool and beach, but the peace and quiet you'll get is a real bonus.

Local area

Rich in tradition, history and culture, Lesvos is the third largest of the Greek islands. The landscape is one of extremes, from areas of pine-covered hillside to swathes of volcanic stone. Testament to the island’s volcanic past are the large number of hot therapeutic springs and a petrified forest, with fossilised trees dating back some 15 million years.

With claims to their medicinal properties, the springs have been used for thousands of years to help cure aches and pains. Well worth a visit after a busy week of activities!

Skala Eressos

A real highlight of a holiday to the Aeolian Village has to be the local village of Skala Erresos. It's at the other end of the bay, just a ten minute stroll along the beach. The restaurants built on stilts over the sea add to the relaxed, bohemian vibe of the village. Rich in history – with ruins of a castle and acropolis – this was also the birthplace of the poet Sappho.

Mytilini

Mytilini, the capital of Lesvos, is a bustling harbour town. Its streets are lined with beautiful mansion houses built in the Venetian style, giving the town a distinct air of grandeur. There is also a Museum of Modern Art with works by Picasso and Matisse, as well as a Byzantine castle which hosts various cultural events during summer months. An ancient theatre in the north of the town has been likened to that of the grand Epidavros.
